SD card slot - stefan.schumacher - 03-28-2020

Hello,

it seems I have ruined my SD card slot. I always had trouble getting the cards out, maybe I'm not skilled enough mechanically but now after many laborous attempts to get the card out the SD refuses to stay in the slot - it stays a few mm over the edge of of the opening. Is this fixable? Can I replace the daughterboard?

Why did nobody think of a nice eject button for those of us less skilled mechanically? I think my fingernails are at least a cm to short to eject this sd cards in any way gracefully.

Yours sincerely
Stefan, frustrated

I need to use a tool.  I use a thick paperclip.
